Comments on: The Twins’ search for bullpen help continues http://blogs2.startribune.com/blogs/neal/2009/01/05/the-twins-search-for-bullpen-help-continues/ The latest on the Minnesota Twins Mon, 23 Nov 2009 17:09:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: paul sorenson http://blogs2.startribune.com/blogs/neal/2009/01/05/the-twins-search-for-bullpen-help-continues/#comment-105426 paul sorenson Thu, 08 Jan 2009 07:59:00 +0000 http://blogs2.startribune.com/blogs/neal/2009/01/05/the-twins-search-for-bullpen-help-continues/#comment-105426 I would'nt give up starters too quickly. I'm sure the Twins would like to have Garza back for example. Also we have a solid farm system; we might as well harvest from it. We had some nice prospect suprise last year (Tlobert & Buscher come to mind ) as compared to the veterans we had picked up. The Twins are the best Professional organization in Minnesota and maybe inpro sports (Small market organization) because they don't take silly risks. if teams are asking too much why give em too much? let some other sucker pay that price.

It is time to clean up the blogs - expect more from the bloggers. None of us (except perhaps the mentioned offender) wants to wade through all the griping and whining that frequently shows up here.

He signed a 1 year deal for $1.3MM with Tampa. We couldn't have done a little better? Sad Why didn’t the Twins try to sign Joe Nelson as an 8th inning guy?
